FULL TITLE: NFL’s Nightmare Becomes Reality As ‘Monday Night Football’ Posts Worst Week 2 Ratings EVER Recorded
The NFL is not going to fold. They are way too big to be derailed by a controversy like this but there’s no doubt they have lost fans which means they have lost money that they didn’t need to lose.
From Breitbart:
The ratings for Week Two’s Monday Night Football game between the Chicago Bears and the Seattle Seahawks, crashed to the lowest numbers ever recorded for a Week Two Monday night game.
That’s bad no matter how you slice it.

Bring back the AFL! :-)
The NFL might have to go out and hire pop-stars and rock bands for every single game’s half-time event....just to attract viewers. Amazing to look at the spiral compared against numbers of a decade ago. No one could have predicted this type of stumble.
NFL?
What’s that?
Never heard of it.
A good thing too as Seattle’s performance was embarrassing. Honestly, they looked like a high school team. There is no reason, on God’s green Earth, why Ifedi is playing pro ball.
Yep, I stopped watching last year. I really miss it, I love football, but it turns my stomach to watch. They will reap what they sow and hopefully all those poor, over privileged idiots will soon have to rely on their diploma to earn a living. How much does basket weaving and pottery pay?
The NFL needs to have their players keep their political views hidden, they are supposed to play for all. Not just those who support their silly cause.
The announcers are horrible.
White libs hate football, hate football players, especially the white jocks and are using passive aggressive means to bring football down a notch while having the fan base feud with some of the black football players and their white SJW handlers. There are lots of great black men playing football, but who do the media scum highlight? In true commie fashion they highlight a group no one actually likes but are forced to like, think Stalin’s standing ovation scenario.
The AFL got absorbed by the NFL decades ago.
That’s understandable, Chicago isn’t a big city...
Not as much as drug dealing and dog fighting.
No, the USFL. New Jersey Generals baby!
In the business world, whenever profitability drops and stays down, it’s time to reevaluate and then you may learn reorganization is necessary. The purpose for your business may even need to be re-defined. Just what is your purpose for existing?
That new MNF announcing crew is probably the worst they’ve ever had. More boring and dull than dirty dishwater.
Redskins have been reported the first non-sellout opening game ever. I’m sure if they change their mascot, things will change/Sarcasm.
The shareholders for Disney, GE and News Corp are about to step in and have their say. Once the boycott/empty seat syndrome hits the stock price, heads will roll.
Looks like they need Rush Limbaugh again to boost ratings.
Interesting side note: I had a meeting last night with Lou Piccone- former Buffalo Bills football great- who was a precursor to the Steve Tasker type special teams guy.
They just need to keep doing what they are doing. They make their bed on the other side of the cultural war. They hate the flag, they hate the military, they hate the police - they should be given community service for this mental errors - and should they persist their games banned on Sundays.
